We leave Saturday for a 12 day trip to Carlsbad, CA. Not a bad drive from Arizona and it will be wonderful to get out of the 100+ degree heat. For some reason I am "confused" with my packing this time, maybe because I have been doing too much and am tired - DUH. I will soon have a few days to do NOTHING except look at the ocean, read, do cross-stitch, listen to calm music when my husband isn't in the condo, etc. (he always has the TV on). Well, I was going to write more but we are ready to leave and we are an hour past our projected departure time. So what else is new. I can definitely see the advantage of having a laptop... then I could visit this site every day and get my fill of sane thinking. Maybe by next trip. Adios for now fellow strokers. Hugs, Leah
